Gabriel Mascaro's filmography embraces narrative perspectives that we rarely see on screen. His 2019 film Divine Love is a neon soaked dance experience that amplifies love and unity against a backdrop of bureaucracy, while his 2015 film Neon Bull invites us into a world of rodeos, horse dancing, and flights of fantasy, and in the process, Gabriel invites us to consider the world anew.That approach to narrative storytelling continues with his latest, and in my view best, film, The Blue Trail.On paper, The Blue Trail sounds oppressive, dystopian, and bleak, as it tells the story of a Brazil which seeks to embrace economic recovery by creating a system where senior citizens over 80 are deported to a 'colony'. We're never shown the colony, nor what occurs to the citizens when they reach there, but we don't need to see it either, given the way that elderly citizens are transported in prison like vehicles - a small van with a cage like apparatus on the back - called wrinkle wagons, forcing the elderly into this colony existence.Yet, what Gabriel Mascaro presents is instead a film that is quite beautiful and tender, reminding audiences that while the elderly may be old, it does not mean that they don't have any more life left to live. Our hero of the story is Tereza, conjured into superb existence with one of the best performances of the year by Denise Weinberg, a 77 year old woman who finds herself scooped up in the unexpected age reduction of the colony residents which now includes her age group. Instead of embracing her fate, Tereza defiantly says that she has a life left to live, and embarks on ticking off some of the things she has never achieved, one such activity being that of flying.So, thwarting authorities and making friends with the underworld, Tereza sets off on the Amazon, heading down river to find a place that will help her achieve her goal of flying, and maybe a little bit more along the way.The Blue Trail is a lovely ode to living a full life in your older years. Gabriel Mascaro's direction is a supportive and nurturing one, easing the viewer out of any form of tension and inviting an embrace of comfort and tenderness instead. That direction is wonderfully supported by the stunning cinematography from Guillermo Garza whose lens captures the nature of the Amazon with care, and brings a life to the almost desolate riverside shacks that Tereza makes her way in and out of. Paired with this is the soaring score from Memo Guerra, a composition that pulses with techno like sensibility paired with an almost orchestral vibe at times. It's unique, yet wholly appropriate to the film itself.The Blue Trail stands apart from similar films which might have embraced the tone of a thriller or increased the tension by putting Tereza into precarious situations that she can't get herself out of. It's then a relief to experience The Blue Trail and see that Tereza is a fully rounded person, she might be older than her counterparts on screen, but she's competent and knows how to handle herself. Gabriel clearly cares for her, and in the process of that, he knows that by showing her support and tenderness, he's also inviting audiences to reconsider our relationships with elderly folks.That's one of the discussion points, amongst many, that Gabriel talks on in the following interview, recorded ahead of The Blue Trail's screenings at Perth Festival.

This week, I was thrilled to welcome a longtime Twitter mutual who's a huge cinephile with outstanding taste, a veritable encyclopedia of Film Noir, & an author as well. Christa Faust writes crime novels, comics, & tie-ins. She worked in the Times Square peep booths, as a professional dominatrix, & in the adult film industry, both behind & in front of the cameras. Her forthcoming Hard Case Crime novel THE GET OFF, the final book in the Angel Dare trilogy, is set in the world of rodeo & will be out in February of 2025.From the 2 years she spent following rodeos around the United States for her upcoming novel to her love of John Huston's THE MISFITS & movies about the sport in general, in this richly fascinating conversation, Christa gives us an insider's view of what it's like to train, live, & work in rodeo. Filled with interesting asides about topics deeply entrenched within it, including traumatic brain injuries, the vital role of women within the rodeo community, & metaphors involving the death of rugged individualism & working in Hollywood, I learned so much from this conversation & I know you will too. Spending a bulk of our time on THE MISFITS, we also touch on THE LUSTY MEN (which listeners will remember was covered in our S4 Robert Mitchum episode too), plus the contemporary films NEON BULL, BULL, & THE RIDER.Originally Posted on Patreon (8/7/24) here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/109652602Theme Music: Solo Acoustic Guitar by Jason Shaw, Free Music ArchiveShop Watch With Jen logo Merchandise in Logo Designer Kate Gabrielle's Threadless ShopDonate to the Pod via Ko-fi

Existentialism and Pizza, Dude This week we're covering films that, in one way or another, deliver on what their titles promise. "A Fistful of Dollars" really was made for about as much money as its name suggests, while "Neon Bull" really does feature a neon bull, and "The Passenger" really is an adaptation of the classic Iggy Pop song. OK, we may have made that last one up, but after Sergio Leone's classic Western our Off the Shelf section goes seriously arthouse. Rob investigates Indicator's blu-ray of Michelangelo Antonioni's enigmatic masterpiece "The Passenger" (starring Jack Nicholson), and Graham saddles up for a rodeo as Second Run release "Neon Bull" for the first time ever in the UK. We're taking a week's break after this, and when we come back? Get ready, because it's war!

"Allierte" er et lekkert krigsdrama som mangler ekte følelser. "Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life" er et hyggelig comeback, men har en del rust i maskineriet. "Neon Bull" er en het, dirrende og stemningsfull film om moderne cowboyer i Brasil. "Bad Santa 2" er en smakløs julegrøt klint sammen av restene fra originalfilmen. I denne podcasten får du også høre den brasilianske regissøren Gabriel Mascaro fortelle hvordan han skapte bånd mellom mennesker og dyr i "Neon Bull", og vi bringer deg nyheter fra film, spill og serieverden!

Mark, Aaron and Eric Ford begin a month of horror with the micro-budget cult classic, Carnival of Souls. We talk about what makes this such an enduring classic that has held up over time, the bizarre story about how it was made, its influences and what it has influenced, and what type of artistic aims the filmmakers tried to reach. About the film: A young woman in a small Kansas town survives a drag race accident, then agrees to take a job as a church organist in Salt Lake City. En route, she is haunted by a bizarre apparition that compels her toward an abandoned lakeside pavilion. Made by industrial filmmakers on a small budget, the eerily effective B-movie classic Carnival of Souls was intended to have “the look of a Bergman and the feel of a Cocteau”—and, with its strikingly used locations and spooky organ score, it succeeds. Herk Harvey's macabre masterpiece gained a cult following on late-night television and continues to inspire filmmakers today.
